22Why has 22 been discontinued? I hate it when companies do this, from what i can see It was pretty damn popular. Does anyone have any idea of a good alternative - preferably non-redken (as i want something thats likely to be.available longer than 5 mins)??

Madness to Discontinue Concrete 22!Like the other reviewers, I'm perplexed and unconsolable that you've discontinued Concrete 22. Without even giving any notice, you've abandoned a good number of faithful customers. Hardware 16 Gel is not anything like an adequate replacement. How about su

Hardwear 16 - good product, bad packagingI just started using Hardwear 16 after having spent years loving your Thickening Lotion 06. It's GREAT, so long as I don't use TOO MUCH... it can be drying and dulling if I do that. However.....
